Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for managing predetermined functions on a mobile device, the operating system (OS) installed on the device including an event application programming interface (API) configured to enable voice over internet protocol (VoIP) applications to assume priority over other applications and functions of the mobile device when VoIP calls are detected. A mobile device management software application installed and running on the mobile device emulates a VoIP software application and uses event API calls to trick the OS into believing that a VoIP call has been detected and, in response, causes the OS to block or interfere with one or more predetermined functions on the mobile device based on the status and location of the mobile device.

Abstract: Technologies disclosed herein are directed to context-based mobile device management. According to one embodiment, an application executing in a mobile device detects an event to trigger context-based management of the mobile device. A usage context associated with the mobile device is determined. One or more policies to enforce on the mobile device are identified as a function of the usage context. The application enforces the one or more policies on the mobile device.

Abstract: Technologies disclosed herein are directed to enforcing blocking functionality on a mobile device (e.g., a mobile device within a vehicle). The mobile device receives a request to disable a blocking of a user interaction with one or more functions of the mobile device. The mobile device prompts a capture of an image by a camera of the mobile device. The mobile device determines whether the image is captured from a passenger space in the vehicle. Once so determined, the mobile device disables the blocking of the user interaction with the one or more functions of the mobile device.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for detecting the presence and location of a mobile communication device within a vehicle includes a monitoring device mounted within the vehicle, the monitoring device includes a primary antenna for detecting cellular data signals originating from within the vehicle. One or more external antenna components mounted at different locations within the vehicle further help to pinpoint the location of detected cellular data signals and correspondingly the location of the mobile device. The external antenna components further help to eliminate and distinguish cellular data signals coming from outside the vehicle and from other mobile communication devices that are not within the driver space of the vehicle.
